1c04f99970 Remove spurious whitespace between function name & open brackets
The libvirt coding standard is to use 'function(...args...)'
instead of 'function (...args...)'. A non-trivial number of
places did not follow this rule and are fixed in this patch.

49ecf8b41f Rename virCommandTranslateStatus to virProcessTranslateStatus
The virCommand prefix was inappropriate because the API

b8c298d301 util: include stderr in log message when an external command fails
This patch is in response to:

  https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=818467

If a caller to virCommandRun doesn't ask for the exitstatus of the
program it's running, the virCommand functions assume that they should
log an error message and return failure if the exit code isn't
0. However, only the commandline and exit status are logged, while
potentially useful information sent by the program to stderr is
discarded.

Fortunately, virCommandRun is already checking if the caller had asked
for stderr to be saved and, if not, sets things up to save it in
*cmd->errbuf. This makes it fairly simple for virCommandWait to
include *cmd->errbuf in the error log (there are still other callers
that don't setup errbuf, and even virCommandRun won't set it up if the
command is being daemonized, so we have to check that it's non-zero).

5e8ab3915b command: avoid potential deadlock on handshake
There is a theoretical problem of an extreme bug where we can get
into deadlock due to command handshaking.  Thanks to a pair of pipes,
we have a situation where the parent thinks the child reported an
error and is waiting for a message from the child to explain the
error; but at the same time the child thinks it reported success
and is waiting for the parent to acknowledge the success; so both
processes are now blocked.

Thankfully, I don't think this deadlock is possible without at
least one other bug in the code, but I did see exactly that sort
of situation prior to commit da831af - I saw a backtrace where a
double close bug in the parent caused the parent to read from the
wrong fd and assume the child failed, even though the child really
sent success.

This potential deadlock is not quite like commit 858c247 (a deadlock
due to multiple readers on one pipe preventing a write from completing),
although the solution is similar - always close unused pipe fds before
blocking, rather than after.

* src/util/command.c (virCommandHandshakeWait): Close unused fds
sooner.

858c2476d9 command: avoid deadlock on EPIPE situation
It is possible to deadlock libvirt by having a domain with XML
longer than PIPE_BUF, and by writing a hook script that closes
stdin early.  This is because libvirt was keeping a copy of the
child's stdin read fd open, which means the write fd in the
parent will never see EPIPE (remember, libvirt should always be
run with SIGPIPE ignored, so we should never get a SIGPIPE signal).
Since there is no error, libvirt blocks waiting for a write to
complete, even though the only reader is also libvirt.  The
solution is to ensure that only the child can act as a reader
before the parent does any writes; and then dealing with the
fallout of dealing with EPIPE.

Thankfully, this is not a security hole - since the only way to
trigger the deadlock is to install a custom hook script, anyone
that already has privileges to install a hook script already has
privileges to do any number of other equally disruptive things
to libvirt; it would only be a security hole if an unprivileged
user could install a hook script to DoS a privileged user.

* src/util/command.c (virCommandRun): Close parent's copy of child
read fd earlier.
(virCommandProcessIO): Don't let EPIPE be fatal; the child may
be done parsing input.
* tests/commandhelper.c (main): Set up a SIGPIPE situation.
* tests/commandtest.c (test20): Trigger it.
* tests/commanddata/test20.log: New file.

da831afcf2 command: avoid double close bugs
KAMEZAWA Hiroyuki reported a nasty double-free bug when virCommand
is used to convert a string into input to a child command.  The
problem is that the poll() loop of virCommandProcessIO would close()
the write end of the pipe in order to let the child see EOF, then
the caller virCommandRun() would also close the same fd number, with
the second close possibly nuking an fd opened by some other thread
in the meantime.  This in turn can have all sorts of bad effects.

The bug has been present since the introduction of virCommand in
commit f16ad06f.

This is based on his first attempt at a patch, at
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=823716

* src/util/command.c (_virCommand): Drop inpipe member.
(virCommandProcessIO): Add argument, to avoid closing caller's fd
without informing caller.

7454849ec5 virCommand: Extend debug message for handshake
Currently, we are logging only one side of pipes we

in cases where pipe2() returns two consecutive FDs. However,
it is not guaranteed and it may return any FDs.
Therefore, it's wise to log the other ends as well.

d19149dda8 virCommandProcessIO(): make poll() usage more robust
POLLIN and POLLHUP are not mutually exclusive. Currently the following
seems possible: the child writes 3K to its stdout or stderr pipe, and
immediately closes it. We get POLLIN|POLLHUP (I'm not sure that's possible
on Linux, but SUSv4 seems to allow it). We read 1K and throw away the
rest.

When poll() returns and we're about to check the /revents/ member in a
given array element, let's map all the revents bits to two (independent)
ideas: "let's attempt to read()", and "let's attempt to write()". This
should cover all errors, EOFs, and normal conditions; the read()/write()
call should report any pending error.

Under this approach, both POLLHUP and POLLERR are mapped to "needs read()"
if we're otherwise prepared for POLLIN. POLLERR also maps to "needs
write()" if we're otherwise prepared for POLLOUT. The rest of the mappings
(POLLPRI etc.) would be easy, but probably useless for pipes.

Additionally, SUSv4 doesn't appear to forbid POLLIN|POLLERR (or
POLLOUT|POLLERR) set simultaneously. One could argue that the read() or
write() call would return without blocking in these cases (with an error),
so POLLIN / POLLOUT would be justified beside POLLERR.

The code now penalizes POLLIN|POLLERR differently from plain POLLERR. The
former (ie. read() returning -1) is terminal and we jump to cleanup, while
plain POLLERR masks only the affected file descriptor for the future.
Let's unify those.

d6354c1696 util: change virFile*Pid functions to return < 0 on failure
Although most functions in libvirt return 0 on success and < 0 on
failure, there are a few functions lingering around that return errno
(a positive value) on failure, and sometimes code calling those
functions incorrectly assumes the <0 standard. I noticed one of these
the other day when auditing networkStartDhcpDaemon after Guido Gunther
found a place where success was improperly returned on failure (that
patch has been acked and is pending a push). The problem was that it
expected the return value from virFileReadPid to be < 0 on failure,
but it was actually positive (it was also neglected to set the return
code in this case, similar to the bug found by Guido).

This all led to the fact that *all* of the virFile*Pid functions in
util.c are returning errno on failure. This patch remedies that
problem by changing them all to return -errno on failure, and makes
any necessary changes to callers of the functions. (In the meantime, I
also properly set the return code on failure of virFileReadPid in
networkStartDhcpDaemon).

5d804ffae4 command: avoid leaking fds across fork
Since libvirt is multi-threaded, we should use FD_CLOEXEC as much
as possible in the parent, and only relax fds to inherited after
forking, to avoid leaking an fd created in one thread to a fork

making virCommand automatically clear FD_CLOEXEC on fds intended
for the child, as well as avoiding a window of time with non-cloexec
pipes created for capturing output.

f3d6754415 command: avoid double close
Previously, the parent process opened 'null' to /dev/null, then
the child process closes 'null' as well as 'childout'.  But if
childout was set to be null, then this is a double close.  At
least the double close was confined to the child process after a
fork, and therefore there is no risk of another thread opening
an fd of the same value to be bitten by the double close, but it
is always better to avoid double-close to begin with.

Additionally, if all three fds were specified, then opening
'null' was wasted.

This patch fixes things to lazily open null on the first use,
then guarantees it gets closed exactly once.

* src/util/command.c (getDevNull): New helper function.
(virExecWithHook): Use it to avoid spurious opens and double close.

c668c89778 command: reduce duplicated debug messages
This also reduces malloc pressure for invoking a child when
VIR_DEBUG is enabled.

* src/util/command.c (virExecWithHook): Drop debug, since the only
caller (virCommandRunAsync) also prints debug info.

f876c30cfe build: silence coverity false positive
Similar in nature to commit fd21ecfd, which shut up valgrind.

sigaction is apparently a nasty interface for analyzer tools,
at least for how many false positives it generates.

* src/util/command.c (virExecWithHook): Initialize entire var, since
coverity gripes about the (unused and non-standard) sa_restorer.
